Megan the obediant coviet and much vaxxed face mask advocate receives a lot of support from the local academics and professors at Mount Allison University in Sackville New Brunswick.. the Tantramar riding has been Green for a few terms already.. will she hold on to her MLA seat?  Megan was the only candidate promoted on campus by the locals and appears to check all the progressive boxes while also garnering votes from visiting students which is a fair number of warm bodies.

Biography 

 

I have been actively involved with the Green Party, Provincially and Federally, since 2019. I identified with the values that the local candidates stood for and was drawn to their vision for the future. In the last 4 years I have volunteered as a door canvasser, phone canvasser, and scrutineer for various campaigns including Laura  Reinsborough (NB Federal - Beausejour), Megan Mitton (NB Provincial - Memramcook-Tantramar), Mike Morrice (ON Federal - Kitchener Centre) and Matt Richter (ON Provincial - Parry Sound-Muskoka). Outside of election cycles, I have been involved with the provincial council for the last 2 years as a councilor at large. In this capacity I have been involved with the Engagement Committee and lead the HR Committee. I am also involved locally with the Sackville Foodbank as a board member with a focus on its Food Delivery program. Outside of volunteering, I work in human resources focussing on recruitment, onboarding, engagement and employee relations. I reside in Sackville, part of the Memramcook-Tantramar riding, with my wife and son. I enjoy keeping active and am lucky enough to be able to run to views of the Bay of Fundy and back from my home. 

 

Why I am running 

 

While on council over the past two years, I appreciated being able to play a part in democracy and meeting New Brunswickers with common Green values. What I've enjoyed the most is working together with like-minded individuals to steer our party forward to more seats and an eventual Green government! I am running for president to continue and develop the great work that has been set in place by our outgoing president, Nicolas Jelic, as we quickly move towards the next provincial election in 2024. 

 

Being president and being on council in general is not about making all the decisions. Being on council is about knowing each of our individual strengths and strengths as a team and using them to engage with members as a whole. Council will work best the more it is connected with our membership. There are many opportunities for Green members and voters to contribute to and be part of key conversations on, Justice.Equity.Diversity.Inclusion (J.E.D.I ), Youth participation, Fundraising, Policy and Governance. The functions of the council depend on ongoing and enhanced engagement with diverse Green members, both veteran and new, in order to reach our goals. The next 2 years will be busy with election prep, election time and post election. As president I would work closely with council, caucus, our executive director, staff and volunteers as a whole to ensure strengthened engagement at all levels."
